🚧 Heads up, park and trail users! 🚧
A City of Colorado Springs Public Works project will begin the week of April 20 in Monument Valley Park, including rehabilitation of the 90-year-old Cache La Poudre St./Mesa Rd. bridge, which will be closed to all users.
This work will impact access to the Pikes Peak Greenway Trail and nearby park areas. Crews have already begun mobilizing, and detours are in place ahead of the full closure.
What to expect:
The Pikes Peak Greenway Trail will remain open on both sides of Monument Creek, with well-marked detours in place as the project progresses. During construction, motor vehicle access to Monument Valley Park’s west side—including the pickleball courts, pool, and pavilion—will be available only via Uintah Street and Glen Avenue. The project is anticipated to last through late Fall 2026.
Tips for your visit:
✔ Park on the west side of Monument Creek to access the pool, pickleball courts, and west side of the Pikes Peak Greenway
✔ Park on the east side of Monument Creek (limited parking available) for access to east-side park activities
✔ Expect limited parking and plan ahead
✔ View the full detour map in the comments or at the link below
